6/// Advanced stride manipulation utilities for NumRS2 arrays.
7///
8/// This module provides advanced functions for manipulating array strides,
9/// enabling sophisticated and memory-efficient array operations similar to
10/// NumPy's `numpy.lib.stride_tricks` module.
11/// Create a view of the given array with the specified strides without copying.
12///
13/// This is a lower-level function than `as_strided` as it directly manipulates
14/// the strides of the array. The returned array is a view of the original
15/// array with modified strides.
16///
17/// # Arguments
18///
19/// * `array` - The input array
20/// * `strides` - The new strides to use
21///
22/// # Returns
23///
24/// * `Ok(Array<T>)` - A view of the input array with the specified strides
25/// * `Err(NumRs2Error)` - Error if strides are invalid or dimension mismatch
26///
27/// # Examples
28///
29/// ```
30/// use numrs2::prelude::*;
31///
32/// let array = Array::from_vec(vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]).reshape(&[3, 3]);
33///
34/// // Create a view with stride 2 in both dimensions (every other element)
35/// let strided = set_strides(&array, &[2, 2]).expect("set_strides should succeed");
36/// assert_eq!(strided.shape(), vec![2, 2]);
37/// ```
38///
39/// # Safety
40///
41/// This function can be unsafe as it allows creating views that might go beyond
42/// the bounds of the original array if used incorrectly. The function attempts
43/// to validate the strides, but it's the caller's responsibility to ensure they
44/// are valid for the given array.
